Mackenzie K. Keith Joseph F. Mangano 2020 raster digital data data release doi.org/10.5066/P9AYWU8Z https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/5c79ade6e4b0fe48cb51450d https://doi.org/10.5066/P9AYWU8Z The Middle Fork Willamette River basin encompasses 3,548 square kilometers of western Oregon and drains to the mainstem Willamette River. Fall Creek basin encompasses 653 square kilometers and drains to the Middle Fork Willamette River. In cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the U.S. Geological Survey evaluated geomorphic responses of downstream river corridors to annual drawdowns to streambed at Fall Creek Lake. This study of geomorphic change is focused on the major alluvial channel segments downstream of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ dams on Fall Creek and the Middle Fork Willamette River, as well as the 736 hectare Fall Creek Lake. Reservoir erosion during streambed drawdown results in sediment delivery to downstream reaches. To better understand patterns and processes of reservoir erosion related to downstream geomorphic responses, detailed reservoir deposit mapping and change analyses are completed. To support these analyses, aerial photographs were collected via unmanned aerial systems (UAS) on November 8 and November 9, 2016, and via Cessna aircraft (or manned aerial system; MAS) on November 10, 2016, to create 3-dimensional xyz point clouds, digital elevation models (DEMs), and orthophotographs of the Fall Creek Lake bottom during full reservoir drawdown using structure-from-motion (SfM) techniques. The November 8 model resulted in a ground resolution of 3.28 centimeters per pixel, average point density of 58.2 points per square meter, and DEM resolution of 13.1 centimeters per cell. The November 9 model resulted in a ground resolution on 2.86 centimeters per pixel, average point density of 76.6 points per square meter, and DEM resolution of 11.4 centimeters per cell. The model for the manned aerial system (MAS) flight on November 10 had a slightly lower ground resolution at 4.18 centimeters per pixel (for multiple altitudes), average point density of 35.8 points per square meter, and output DEM resolution of 16.7 centimeters per cell. Cell sizes were automatically generated by the software. This documentation describes the aerial photographs (in four zipped folders including .csv and .kml files for UAS image location information) for Fall Creek Lake, Oregon, acquired when lake levels at streambed on November 10, 2016. This dataset is part of a broader publication including aerial photographs, 3-dimensional xyz point clouds, DEMs, orthophotographs, model processing reports, ground control points, and dataset footprints for November 8-10, 2016. The raw photographs, point clouds, DEMs, and orthophotographs (herein collectively referred to as SfM datasets) covering Fall Creek Lake support detailed mapping of reservoir deposits and quantitative reservoir change analyses related to the streambed drawdown during water year 2017 (WY2017). The detailed mapping was primarily based on the November 10, 2016, SfM datasets and provide a basis for evaluating geomorphic context of eroded or deposited sediment relative to other (November 8 and 9) SfM datasets collected in WY2017, lidar of the reservoir collected in 2012, as well as other elevation datasets collected in the future. These datasets also provide basis for characterizing future geomorphic and topographic changes in Fall Creek Lake. 20161110 ground condition Complete None planned -122.759073 -122.667780 43.973984 43.921350 ISO 19115 Topic Categories inlandWaters geoscientificInformation imageryBaseMapsEarthCover None sediment transport fluvial geomorphology reservoir aerial images structure from motion sfm photogrammetry unmanned aerial system UAS orthoimagery orthophotograph erosion drawdown dam USGS Thesaurus geospatial analysis aerial photography geomorphology geospatial datasets USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:5dfd18d8e4b0b207aa007e34 Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) Fall Creek Winberry Creek Middle Fork Willamette River Oregon Lane County Fall Creek Lake Jasper, Oregon none The U.S. Geological Survey shall not be held liable for improper or incorrect use of the data retrieved from the system.

Denver CO 80225 United States 1-888-275-8747 sciencebase@usgs.gov None Unclassified None Four UAS flights on November 8 captured 2,982 photographs covering 3.19 square kilometers at an average flight altitude (relative to the ground surface) of about 143 meters used to generate a dense point cloud in Agisoft PhotoScan Professional (version 1.2.6) software. A DEM and orthophotographs were also generated by the software. Similarly, two UAS flights on November 9 captured 1,702 photographs covering 1.72 square kilometers at an average flight altitude of 125 meters used to create point cloud, DEM, and orthophotographs. Photographs from UAS flights were captured with a Sony ILCE-5100 (6000x4000 resolution). UAS flights were contracted through the USGS to Frontier Precision, Inc., Boise, Idaho. The manned aerial survey on November 10 captured 1,888 photographs with a Ricoh GRII (4982x3264 resolution) over the study area but only 1,429 were used to generate a point cloud and subsequent DEM and orthophotograph. The photographs covered 6.78 square kilometers and were taken at different flight altitudes of about 180 and 300 meters. The manned aerial acquisition was contracted through the USGS to Brown Western Aviation, Independence, Oregon. Photographs were acquired by mounting the camera to the wing of the plane. All datasets are in UTM Zone 10 North, projection. The horizontal datum is the North American Datum of 1983 and elevations reference the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (GEOID 12B). All images obtained during the Fall Creek Lake drawdown during WY2017 are included in each associated zipped flight file. Photographs were separated by day to create point clouds, DEMs, and orthophotographs. Not all images were used in generation of SfM datasets due to various factors resulting in no-to-few tie points of ground features within overlapping images. Some manual removal of erroneous points was performed on the point cloud. All remaining points generated by the dense point clouds are included in the point cloud files for each day. Resulting DEMs and orthophotographs are not clipped to areas of high uncertainty, particularly near edges where minimal photograph overlap was used in photogrammetric processing. Additionally, DEMs have not been clipped to remove areas of vegetation that do not represent ground elevations. No formal horizontal accuracy tests were performed. However, horizontal accuracy likely decreases with distance from ground control. Ground control points surveyed with a network-based RTK-GPS had a reported horizontal precision ranging from 0.01 to 0.05 meters. Though, not an assessment of horizontal or vertical accuracy, residuals between the model fit and ground control points are described here. For the November 8 UAS model, thirty-two ground control point were used to construct SfM datasets, and the model had a horizontal error of 6.56 centimeters and vertical error of 3.51 centimeters (overall error of 7.44 centimeters). One ground control point was withheld and compared to the model and had a horizontal error of 2.31 centimeters, vertical error of 0.04 centimeters, and overall error of 2.31 centimeters. Because of the smaller area covered on the November 9 flights, only eighteen points were used to construct the model. Horizontal, vertical, and overall resulting model errors were 4.60, 4.60, and 6.51 centimeters, respectively. The one control point withheld had a horizontal error of 1.67 centimeters and a vertical error of 1.47 centimeters (overall error of 2.23 centimeters). For the November 10 MAS model, thirty-five ground control points were used to construct SfM datasets and had a horizontal error of 7.02 centimeters and vertical error of 3.44 centimeters (overall error of 7.82 centimeters). Four ground control points were withheld and compared to the model and had a horizontal error of 9.48 centimeters and vertical error of 7.18 (overall error of 11.89 centimeters). Visual comparison of DEMs generated for 2016 to lidar collected in 2012 indicated horizontal displacement was minimal for all datasets, although some obvious distortion is noticeable where vegetation is present or there was very little photograph overlap. Increasing noise at surface water locations occurs within each model; these areas were not edited or hydroflattened. No formal vertical accuracy tests were performed. However, vertical accuracy likely decreases with distance from ground control. Ground control points surveyed with a network-based RTK-GPS had a reported vertical precision ranging from 0.01 to 0.05 meters. Though, not an assessment of horizontal or vertical accuracy, residuals between the model fit and ground control points are described here.

For the November 10 MAS model, thirty-five ground control points were used to construct SfM datasets and had a horizontal error of 7.02 centimeters and vertical error of 3.44 centimeters (overall error of 7.82 centimeters). Four ground control points were withheld and compared to the model and had a horizontal error of 9.48 centimeters and vertical error of 7.18 (overall error of 11.89 centimeters). Comparison of the three DEMs generated for 2016 with random point sampling of the reservoir floor area showed an average vertical difference between November 8 and 9 was an average 0.07 meters, and the average vertical difference between November 8 and 10 was 0.09 meters; though, in both comparisons some values were much greater where there was notable uncertainty in the models. Vertical accuracy is poor around DEM edges, particularly farther from ground control. Increasing noise at surface water locations occurs within each model; these areas were not edited or hydroflattened. For aerial image acquisition with the manned flight, Brown Western Aviation (Independence, Oregon) collected photographs on November 10, 2016 between 13:33 to 14:35 PST covering approximately 6.78 square kilometers of the reservoir area. A Ricoh GR II digital camera was mounted to the wing of Cessna aircraft and set to record RAW files (.DNG extension) every 2 seconds. The pilot flew a gridded pass at about 300 meters above ground level over Fall Creek Lake and then a repeated a longitudinal channel pass at about 180 meters above ground level over the main Fall Creek channel. The turns were slid instead of banked to keep camera level with the ground. A total of 1,888 photos over the study area. 20161110 Acquisition files for November 10, 2016 are split by into 4 zipped folders containing the aerial photographs. fc_day3_photographs_1.zip consists of 472 files (about 8.38 GB compressed). fc_day3_photographs_2.zip consists of 472 files (about 8.40 GB compressed). fc_day3_photographs_3.zip consists of 472 files (about 8.48 GB compressed). fc_day3_photographs_4.zip consists of 472 files (about 8.30 GB compressed).
